Nintendo's Wii U console has something others don't .The ability to bring out the artist in you.Since the launch of the console and the many great black and white drawings on Miiverse ( Nintendo's social network) that have been published by thousands of Wii U owners it seems that the goal posts have moved with the release of Art Academy Sketchpad a few weeks back.

People have been posting some great pieces of art on the community and all created using the Wii U gamepad and Stylus.

Now i have yet to get permission to publish other Miiverse members art but below are a few i have done myself .Now i am no artist but even i am amazed at how addictive this little APP is and it costs only £3.79.

You can't do this on your Sony or Microsoft consoles. Well not as yet anyway. But being this is so popular it could change.

Art Academy Sketchpad is available on Nintendo eshop on Wii U

As you can see I am no artist ,but hey you got to start somewhere.
